Fasting for Weight Loss
Fasting leads to weight loss by creating a calorie deficit. When you fast, you are not consuming any calories, which means your body has to use stored energy (in the form of fat) for fuel. This creates a calorie deficit, which is necessary for weight loss.
Additionally, when you fast, your insulin levels decrease. Insulin is a hormone that is responsible for regulating your blood sugar levels. When your insulin levels are high, your body is in a state of fat storage. When your insulin levels are low, your body is in a state of fat burning. By reducing insulin levels through fasting, you can increase fat burning and promote weight loss.
Fasting for Physical Health
Water fasting is a type of fasting that involves consuming only water for a set period of time. This practice has been used for centuries for spiritual and health reasons. In recent years, water fasting has gained popularity as a means of improving physical health. Water fasting involves consuming no food or other beverages besides water for a period of time, ranging from a few days to several weeks. In this article, we will explore the science behind water fasting and its impact on physical health.
Fasting for Mental Health
Fasting has been practiced for centuries as a means of mental spiritual and physical purification. True fasting involves abstaining from all food and drink for a given period with the ingestion of water only. Many have thought there are different types of fasting such as a detox juice cleanse or other forms of dietary abstinence and inclusions. The true term ‘Fasting’ however, lies in the abstaining from all nutrients to the body and allowing the body to enter into metabolic ketosis. This will be addressed in various articles on our website, yet we are currently examining the benefits of water fasting for mental health, whether it’s a 12 hour fast 3-day fast, a 7 day fast or a 30 day fast. It is important however to gain the correct supervision prior to embarking on longer periods of abstinence.
